igbvf: do not modify tx_queue_len on link speed change

Previously the driver tweaked txqueuelen to avoid false Tx hang reports seen at half duplex.
This had the effect of overriding user set values on link change/reset. Testing shows that
adjusting only the timeout factor is sufficient to prevent Tx hang reports at half duplex.

Based on e1000e patch by Franco Fichtner <franco@lastsummer.de>
